Hello, this is what happened so far. I was using my Nitecore SRT3. The light shut off while in use. I assumed it was a low battery, then put it in the charger some time later. It read 3.15V, and took it out at 4.15V. As I was taking the battery out, I noticed something on my fingers. It was like a oily, clear film which I think came off from the side of the battery. Would that be a sign of something leaking? The battery is an AW 14500 protected battery. I want to play it safe before putting it back in the flashlight. Thank you.
